NEW Red mage/ blue mage info

Some recent news of possible red/blue mage:

NY: This question is the most difficult out of all of the questions you’ve asked!


We’ve received lots of feedback from around the world with regard to new jobs. Red mage and samurai are particularly popular requests. With a job that is simply a support role, raising its effectiveness would force the job to become mandatory in a party. On the other hand, if the support power was weakened, it would be difficult to contribute to the party. Therefore, that type of job is very difficult to balance.

If we were to ever implement a red mage job, I don’t think it would simply be a support role. In terms of the blue mage, I think it may be great to make it a special job geared specifically toward solo play, almost like a unique type of playable content in and of itself. In any case, I am not able to definitively reply about the next new job at this time, but regardless of what job we do implement, I promise you that players will be surprised and enjoy playing it!
